About the Item

Bentwood Armchair, Czechoslovakia, 1930s — Art Deco Meets Bauhaus Elegance Four available – Sold and priced individually This stunning bentwood armchair, made in 1930s Czechoslovakia, brings together the refined lines of Bauhaus design with the sculptural grace of Art Deco. Its triple-slat backrest and seamlessly curved armrests create a silhouette that’s both functional and full of character. Crafted from stained hardwood—likely beech or birch—the chair’s warm patina adds depth and history to its already striking form. The solid wood seat and sturdy construction give it a grounded, confident feel, while the bentwood curves lend it a softness that’s timeless and versatile. The design is minimal but not plain—every line has purpose, and the craftsmanship speaks volumes. Whether used as a statement desk chair, a refined dining piece, or an accent in a modern interior, this chair brings quiet elegance and architectural appeal to any setting. Key Features: – Triple-slat back with clean, geometric lines – Bentwood armrests integrated into the frame – Solid wood seat and legs – Rich, original finish with gentle aging – Rare Bauhaus–Art Deco crossover design Dimensions: Height: 86 cm (33.85 in.)
